| Biafra: What Is Known As South-south Are Ancient Igbo Lands, IPOB Blasts PANDEF by Ezewuzie01(op): 7:37am On Dec 08, 2024 |
The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, on Saturday insisted that Biafra territories cover Edo, Kogi, Cross River and Bayelsa states. IPOB made the remark while faulting the Pan Niger Delta Forum, PANDEF, and an Igala group for condemning the inclusion of the Niger Delta and Kogi State in the Biafra territories. PANDEF had warned the proponents of the Biafra Republic against including communities in the Niger Delta or South-South geopolitical zone in their secessionist plans. Also, the Eastern Senatorial District of Kogi State, which spoke through a group under the auspices of Igala Youth Council, condemned the inclusion of the state in the secessionist agenda. The group noted that the viral video of IPOB outlining their plans for a 40-state Biafran nation was not only laughable but a joke taken too far. Reacting, IPOB’s spokesman, Emma Powerful, said: “The myriad of statements purportedly emanating from some of these recruited faceless individuals on social media and belatedly from alleged Igala groups and PANDEF, disassociating themselves from Biafra is not only pathetic but laughable. “For the thousandth time, we wish to make it abundantly clear that ancient Igboland spans 13 states of Nigeria. “These are not areas occupied by Igbo speaking people but are ancient Igbo land with Igbo people in them. Therefore the hate inspired, politically motivated gerrymandering of borders in Igboland to create the misleading impression that Igboland and Igbo people are confined to only 5 states of the Southeast is a lie this IPOB shall confront and will continue to confront until the truth is not only acknowledged but acted upon via the instrumentality of a United Nations supervised referendum as was the case in Southern Sudan, the newest state to emerge in Africa. “Those is Igala and PANDEF that claim they don’t want anything to do with Biafra, must also know and accept that Igboland in these territories Gowon and the British ceded to the North, Mid-West and the so-called South South will eternally be Igboland and no jupiter will change this irrefutable fact. When the Nigerian state balkanised ancient Igboland by carving these territories into their newly created ‘non-Igbo’ states, nobody complained because IPOB had not come by then. “Now that God has determined that we must come, we IPOB are here and we say without any fear of contradiction that Igboland is one and indivisible, from those carved into Kogi State to Bayelsa and from those in Cross River to Edo. “Our great leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is on record as having said repeatedly that no ethnic group, tribe or clan will be forced to become part of Biafra. “Biafra shall be a model nation founded along the principles of confederacy as obtains in Switzerland and the United Arab Emirates, with the consent of the people wilfully expressed in a UN supervised referendum. PANDEF and our brothers in Igala land should wait for an opportunity to express their preference in a referendum before deciding where they wish to belong or not. “We must also be guided by the fact that the wonderful people of Obosi in Anambra State have within them those who are descended from the land of Igala in present day Kogi State. If in doubt ask the Attah of Obosi. We Biafrans are republican by nature and no single human being arrogate powers unto himself without the consent of the people. Therefore, there can never be any government or prime minister without the consent of every Biafran, willfully expressed in a widely accepted democratic process. In other words, to be the head of state, prime minister or any officer of state in Biafra, you must be voted for by the people. “Biafra is a project ordained by our Almighty God himself and no amount of subterfuge, deceit, lies, murder, kidnapping or persecution will make us deviate from this peaceful path to freedom.” https://dailypost.ng/2024/12/07/edo-kogi-cross-river-bayelsa-part-of-biafra-ipob-replies-pandef-igala-group/ |

IP0B is correct It is time to confront the socalled PANDEF and similar amarphous organisation, and neutralise these federal Nigeria infestations in the former Eastern Nigeria. Some people started seeing themselves as the new Goliaths because they were able to bomb pipelines that passed their backyards and were paid billions to stop by a bemused federal government. |

helinues:You refused to explain to me why Yorubas should be ruling the Eguns in Lagos. Are Yorubas Eguns? So why would you come from Osun to rule the Eguns in their indigenous Lagos state, but will be pontificating on what the Igbos should do and should not do in the southsouth? If the Yorubas can talk and lead in Lagos, the igbos can talk and lead in the southsouth, because there is no southsouth state without an indigenous igbo community, irrespective of the warped agenda of the village revisionists. There you have your answers.. You can now start your daily online amebo to earn your paltry Onanuga allowance.. |

Clowns! These ones keep lying to themselves. They can continue to waste their lives deluding on coveting lands of great ethnic groups who don't have their time. Nonetheless, different indigenous ethnic groups senselessly included in their autistic maps have issued stern warnings in the nicest ways possible. It's left for the i.pob to give themselves brain! |

Ezewuzie01: These are not areas occupied by Igbo speaking people but are ancient Igbo land with Igbo people in them.

Otherwise you may loose some parts of Ondo too for poke nosing... |

[quote author=helinues post=133207044][/quote] ![]() You guys should stop pushing us over our determination to have a verrrrry good relationship with OUR BLODAS in the southsouth. Una long throat go kee una oo. I Don dey warn una now oo. Many igbos don't even know about these ethnic differences in places like Lagos and how such political/cultural vulnerabilities can be cleverly manipulated to create disunity in lagos. Lagos na una priced jewel. We can easily introduce a divide and rule scenario there post tinubu oo. Fulanis will not help una after all these tax bill rofo rofo. Keep una Lagos and allow us to evolve our brotherliness with the southsouth, una no greee... Okay oo |

MadPolitician:The difference is that most people in South South see you people as slaves so they find it difficult to give in to your leadership instead they want to lead you people as it had been before the British handed leadership of old east to you people. |

chrisxxx:Your views on this is totally inconsequential. You are a South westerner trying desperately to protect his oil industry work. Let the people decide on a referendum or plebiscite. Whichever suits you or them. Stop propagating these spurious propaganda details from the Lagos ibadam express way press houses. That's how you were wailing that all Ikwerres will behead anybody that calls them igbos, but few days ago Ikwerres were the ones going gaga at their right to head Ohaneze. Explain that, you interloper. Oga, shift. Let the people involved make their decisions. My views and yours shouldn't count. Allow the so called minorities to make their decisions in a well organised process. What's wrong with that? |
| Re: Biafra: What Is Known As South-south Are Ancient Igbo Lands, IPOB Blasts PANDEF by Yujin(m): 11:02am On Dec 08, 2024 |
chrisxxx:Isn't it contradictory that an Igbo man called Jaja was the most important king in the Niger Delta to have resisted the British invasion? Most notable kings in Kalabari and Okrika communities have Igbo origins. The intermarriage among Igbos and the various smaller groups was far greater than what was obtainable in other parts of the Niger area pre-European invasion. I guess they were knowingly marrying their slaves and very comfortable with those slaves being their kings. Except you're intentionally trolling, sense is very fat from you. |

Meanwhile, this thread is classic Ezewuzie type of thread where the heading is totally different from the content. Most people will entirely misunderstand the content of the article due to ignorance and the average Nigerian prejudice of anything Igbo. However, when you carefully read through the content of Mazi Emma Powerful's response, you'll understand clearly what he said. The IPOB spokesman stated that Ndigbo are found in 13 states of the Nigerian contraption. It is these Igbos and their communities irrespective of whatever state or geopolitical region the bias Nigerian government carved them into that will by default be carved into Biafra. Any other different ethnic group who's willing to join Biafra can do so through accepting the referendum call IPOB has been making. No one will be forced into Biafra as we don't Igbos by nature don't believe is forceful association. He never claimed all South South states were ancient Igboland that belonged to Igbo people. It's the demonic 'Ezewuzie' (the person who opened this thread with a misleading headline) that did it to create further animosity. My advice to readers is to always be on the watch for any thread from Ezewuzie. They are always meant to either mislead you or to cause problems for Igbos. |
